Pros:

Struttura con grande fascino architettonico.Cura dei particolari, arredi d'epoca. Ottima organizzazione. Breakfast notevole, più salato che dolce ma di grande qualità

Cons:

Piccoli problemi in bagno: acqua che si infiltra sotto al vetro della doccia e bagna il pavimento. Comoda illuminazione che si accende con sensore ma che si spegne durante la doccia...è un sistema per risparmiare acqua?

We enjoyed Flam but would consider a more reasonably priced hotel for a future trip.
Pros:

Breakfast buffet was outstanding. Room had a small balcony overlooking the town. Short walking trail right behind the hotel. Location was great. Nice observation deck with great views.

Cons:

Even knowing that Flam is expensive, we were a bit disappointed in the ordinary nature of the room for the price we paid. No coffee in the room.

周辺環境は最高だが、コスパが悪すぎ
Pros:

フロムの駅から見えている好立地。周りの環境は最高

Cons:

朝食のメニューが少ない。1階は庭直結なのにレースのカーテンがない。外から丸見え、値段の割にアメニティなど貧弱（テッシュもない）フロムには宿が少ないのであぐらかいてるな。

Misleidend en het geld absoluut niet waard.
Pros:

De locatie

Cons:

Het hotel is zeer gedateerd en alles (dus ook de superior kamer waar wij verbleven) is absoluut aan renovatie toe. De prijs kwaliteit verhouding is naar mijn mening totaal zoek en betaal je simpelweg alleen voor de locatie in Flam. Bijna €600 per nacht voor een oude te renoveren kamer en bedden, die absoluut niet overeenkomt met de foto's is naar mijn mening oplichterij! Ook het ontbijt is niet van een echt hoge kwaliteit.
